Limitless The Strongest Revenant-Chapter 923: How do you think [2/2]
"Stop pushing him, Jailbait. You cried like a little baby the last time he got angry."
"Hmm.. Indeed, my back was sore for days. Shujin is a closet sadist."
The Sirens chatted on, oblivious to the tension as I tried to salvage the situation. Seeing both the Saints and Roach regain their composure, I decided to drop the matter. Turning to Yvonne, who slumped her shoulders, I spoke.
"Yvonne. As I was saying, your role for now is only to bless the shit out of this Dream demon. Once it leaves the body, Roach will kill it."
"Okay…"
Seeing her in low spirits, I felt bad. So I added, "Once you see what these demonkin can do, if there is another, I will allow your squad to fight the next one."
"Huh?" at my words, not only Roach but also the wolves all uttered in disbelief. Even Amari, Mia, and Zanele.
"Successor. You…"
Turning to Zanele, I nodded.
"You know how the {Kindred} clans operate. They won't take kindly to any challenge. So I will create a power base for you. The three other Princes you know. We will save them all. If we can find the others, we will do so as well. In exchange, Hellsend will claim all the corpses. Is that fine?"
"Huh? Ah! Of course it is Successor! You may take everything you wish! It's just that I am not sure how the other clans would react. No one actually tried to help each other before. Everyone was solely concerned with not getting wiped out," Zanele answered in haste.
"I am aware. And I will take care of it. The same offer to you I will make to them. If they choose to remain alone, that is fine. But I will never ask for their help once again. If their clan leaders have any bit of intelligence, they should understand."
I then turned to Amari and Mia.

"You two are going to have to do some legwork as well. Amari, I need a local leader for the army I will raise here. You may give the position to your mother, or you may take it yourself; I don't really care. But know that I will only ask once. What do you wish to do?"
"I-I…"
As Amari stammered, Bella took my arm and elaborated.
"This position will have significant political and military influence. It will involve commanding the Awakened. And, most likely, raising the local Reapers to Hellsend standards by distributing supplies. Given Honey's tendencies, you will be dragged to many a battle."
The other Sirens joined in to mention everything else.
"Since we plan to help your dad, this would be good for you! This way you can make babies with Mia and not have to share her! Although you would need to handle the political stuff on your own. But everything else, Darling, will surely send help!"
"Soldat-san, think about it carefully. Aligning with Hellsend marks you as a target for our enemies as well. Many of them will try to attack you as our proxy. Yet, know that we will not abandon you. From weapons and training to allies, we will assist you. You have already seen the results."
"Your mom can be the brains but that's it. Anything more and the other niggers will say she is sleeping with Possum. It has to be you. That way she will just be seen as a supportive mom. Just remember Possum only ever asks once. You say no, that's it."
Nodding at my girls' explanations, I did not forget to warn Mia as well.
"Mia, this also goes for you. You will marry him soon. So, you must know it will affect you and your future children. You cannot join this if you have allegiances left to Europe."
But the werewolf girl shook her head and answered in a resolute manner. I could see in her eyes that she truly meant what she was about to say.
"Don't bother worrying about me, Limitless. My place is with Amari. Whatever he does, I will support him until the day I die. Even if I have to turn my back on my continent to do it."
At Mia's heartfelt declaration, Amari looked at her with hearts in his eyes. His smile practically oozed happiness, but there was also a fear in it. As a local African descendant, I can only imagine the battles he was forced to endure.
"Fluffy…"
"Hush, Choco… you have enough stuff to deal with. This is like really huge. You cannot be careless. Whatever you choose, I will be with you every step of the way."
Zanele came forward and bowed her head.
"Thank you for considering Amari's position, Limitless. But please know that even if it hurts my image, I am fine taking that role. In order to support and protect my husband, I am fine being seen negatively in the short term. Can you please give Amari a few days?"
Frankly, I wish it would be better to use Zanele, but as a married man, I don't want to get close to her. And since the Immortal was probably crazy like me, I expected he might be possessive.
'Although considering that he treats his women like shit, that might not be true.'
"Sure, I will give Amari until I leave Africa. Zanele, Hellsend, and I will take care of this demonkin and save the Prince. Afterwards, we will discuss it with the Successors. Only after that will I move for the others. Understood?"
"Yes, Successor. Thank you very much for your kindness."
"Roach, Juno, do you have issues with what I proposed?"
"No, my lord, we do not. The Vithriss and I stand ready. We can summon more as needed if the ones I brought cannot handle the malice."
"Just let me fight and I'm good," Roach grunted in a brusque manner.
"Got it. Then let's begin. Yvonne. Bless the shit out of this fucker so we can go on with our lives already."
Yvonne nodded before pulling out what looked like a long staff with a crucifix on it. Solemn like a holy woman, I felt the very air feel purged of malice just by being in the same room as Yvonne.
I remember the crucifix as the manifested {Fate} of Yvonne. But it has now transformed to include a long rod attached to its end.
'So manifested {fates} change their appearance based on their levels.'
The other wolves surrounded the bed like the spokes on a wheel. They all began exhibiting holy energy. Funnily enough, aside from Claire, all of them had new objects as their manifested {fates}.
"{Sacred ground}."
Yvonne then slammed her staff on the ground. Dazzling lights then drew a golden cross pattern on the ground. The amount of holy energy in the air was pure, as if this space were so holy that cursing in it would get you smitten by God.
"Grrrr…" "Mmph…"
I turned and saw both Juno and Roach step away from the cross on the floor. From their reactions, I saw that Yvonne's {fate} could harm them. It was unlike normal blessings.
{Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name…} x11
The wolves then began to say a familiar prayer using souls. I was about to ask when the man on the bed suddenly rose up as if possessed and began to scream!
"AHHHHHHHHGGGHHHAAA!"
"Hmm… interesting."
